Hip & Groin Injections
Guided injections into the hip joint using local anesthetic can be used to aid in the diagnoses of a variety of hip and groin pain related pain. The use of steroid and hyaluronic acid can help with reduction in pain and stiffness in cases of osteoarthritis.
Do I need a Hip injection?
If the exact cause of your hip pain is unclear, a guided injection of anaesthetic directly into the joint can help to confirm or deny if the joint itself is at the root of the pain.
In confirmed cases of true hip joint pain, including arthritis and synovitis, injecting steroids and hyaluronic acid can help to reduce pain and inflammation and improve function.

What to expect at my hip injection appointment?
Be sure to arrive 15 minutes before your scheduled appointment time, giving you time to fill out a new patient form.
At your initial consultation, the doctor will take time to understand your symptoms and undertake a thorough assessment to ensure the injection is right for you. It is important to let the doctor know of any known allergies, such as plasters and to inform us if you are pregnant. Please also let the doctor know if you have any medical conditions and take any regular medications including blood thinning medications. This is also a great opportunity to ask the doctor any questions you may have about the procedure.
Prior to your procedure, eat and drink as normal and take any regular medication as usual (unless advised otherwise by the doctor). Please come to your appointment wearing loose, comfortable clothing.
